The great giver of all good has blessed your farmers with a rich harvest and the coming season will bring to our country a j oiling tide of immigration. It is the tried community that knows how to be liberal. All who have sought homes in a new country know the at- tractions of a neighborhood with its schools its churches and its benevolrnt institutions. Add to these a liberally endowed college.

Tell him" said the Doctor " that I am too happily employed to change my situation." The ladies insisted that he should go as his visitor was a man of rank his patron and his friend. As per- suasion however btd no effect one took him by the right arm the other by the left and led him to the garden gate when finding resistance was in vain he bowed laid his hand upon his heart and in that expressive manner for which he was so remarkable spoke the following lines: "Thus Adam looked when from the garden driven And thus disputed orders sent from Heaven like him I go hut yet to go am loth ; Like him I go for angels drove us both : Hard was his fate hut mine still more unkind. His Eve went with him but mine slays behind."' A Dutchman having a friend hung in thisc...

The editor is speaking of information received from a gentleman who arrived on the steamship Empire City from Havana: '"This gentleman was informed bv an Amfiriwin xwhn rn. sides in Havana that a regular Yankee trick was played off vu one 01 ineir steamers a short time since. It was to the effect that a large brig with American colors lying outside the harbor excited suspicions that she had some smuggling operation in view. Under this impression the authorities dis- patched one of the steamers after her. She immediately set sail the steamer following in her wake running close along a reef that projected out like an elbow.
